It could be because print media isn’t dead. Or it could be because Australia is the country that the fashion industry is currently turning to in order to make up for their financial shortfalls elsewhere (hence Topshop Australia will open within weeks of its parent company announcing a 38% downturn in profits). Or perhaps it’s a combination of both.

But highlighting just how underserved Australia’s fashion scene traditionally has been, 2012 will finally see the country get its own edition of Elle magazine.

ACP Magazines and joint venture partner, Hearst Magazines International announced today the launch of an Australian edition of the world’s most successful fashion monthly magazine, ELLE, in the autumn of 2012.

The Australian edition of Elle magazine will launch with print and digital interest, including a dedicated app.

Late one Oxford night Daniel P Dykes set about creating a fashion publication that would go someway to being an arbiter on fashion as it appeals to the emerging power generations: those who don't remember a world without the Internet and for whom work plays second fiddle to pleasure. And so Fashionising.com was born as a publication for those who were focussed not just on fashion's trends, but on society's too, and how those trends could all go to heighten the art of living. Hence, Daniel sees a future where, for those young at heart, both fashion and style are grounded in traditional quality, but with a youthful, sensualised edge. Daniel is Fashionising.com's Editor in Chief and Chairman.
